    Hi @lalajee

    If you setup PAC File by configures the proxy settings for Microsoft Edge, please refer to doc: ProxySettings policy.

    Setting the ProxySettings policy accepts the following fields:

    SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\ProxySettings = {
      "ProxyBypassList": "https://www.example1.com,https://www.example2.com,https://internalsite/",
      "ProxyMode": "pac_script",
      "ProxyPacMandatory": false,
      "ProxyPacUrl": "https://internal.site/example.pac",
      "ProxyServer": "123.123.123.123:8080"
    }
    

    After configuring this policy, to force a group policy update, type gpupdate /force at the Windows administrator Command Prompt (Run as administrator).

    Then, enter "edge://policy/" in edge, and check if there is ProxySettings enabled.
